The Mission of the Tompkins County Workers’ Center is to stand up with all people treated unfairly at work. We will support, advocate for, and seek to empower each other to create a more just community and world.

The TCWC is committed to grassroots community organizing centering the voice of people most impacted by economic injustice. We have rolled out a new membership structure helping us to build power through membership and use that power to make meaningful progress on the issues that are important to us as workers.
